By Daniel John Jambun, President Change Advocate Movement Sabah (CAMOS)
KOTA KINABALU: Change Advocate Movement Sabah (CAMOS) strongly condemns Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim for preaching about integrity and justice while refusing to act on the Sabah Mineral Management scandal.
At party conventions, PMX talks tough about corruption, power abuse, and “saving the country”.
But when confronted with the explosive allegations surrounding Sabah Mineral Management Sdn Bhd (SMM) — leaked videos, alleged kickbacks, and serious questions over mineral licensing — the Prime Minister suddenly finds his voice.
This is not leadership.
This is political cowardice.
You cannot claim to be waging war on corruption while protecting a wall of silence around one of Sabah’s biggest governance scandals.
CAMOS asks bluntly:
Where are the MACC arrests?
Where are the prosecutions?
Where is the Royal Commission of Inquiry?
If this government is truly “uncompromising”, why has nothing moved on SMM?
Sabahans are not blind.
We see swift action when cases involve opposition figures.
We see hesitation and paralysis when matters touch politically sensitive interests.
That is not reform.
That is selective justice.
And selective justice is simply corruption wearing a different uniform.
While PMX delivers speeches about billions stolen elsewhere, Sabah’s natural resources are quietly placed at risk. While Putrajaya boasts of moral courage, Sabahans are burdened with higher electricity tariffs and rising living costs — yet denied answers on SMM.
This government cannot demand public trust while practising double standards.
If PMX truly believes no one is above the law, then prove it.
CAMOS demands:
Immediate and transparent investigation into SMM;
Full public disclosure of all findings;
Criminal charges against every individual involved — regardless of rank, party, or position;
An independent Royal Commission of Inquiry.
Anything less confirms what many already suspect: that PMX’s anti-corruption campaign is selective, performative, and politically convenient.
Sabah deserves justice — not slogans.
Sabah deserves accountability — not speeches.
The people are watching.
